    How Much Do I Need?

    All our fertilisers are designed to be applied at 25g per m² — the perfect rate for professional results without the risk of overfeeding.

    You might be used to heavier application rates with DIY products, but our formulas are concentrated, so a little really does go a long way.

    To work out how much you need:

    • Measure your lawn using our handy Lawn Size Calculator.
    • Multiply your lawn’s size (in m²) by 25g
    • Choose the pack size that covers your area — if you’re between sizes, round up to ensure full coverage.

    Bag coverage guide:

    • 50m² bag = 1.25kg
    • 100m² bag = 2.5kg
    • 200m² bag = 4.7kg

    Stick to 25g per m² and you’ll see fast, safe, and visible improvement.

    How to Apply?

    Follow these simple steps for best results:

    Step 1: Mow your lawn (if needed)
    For best results, mow your lawn 2-3 days before applying fertiliser. This clears away excess grass, helping the nutrients reach the soil where they're needed most. Avoid mowing immediately before application, especially in very dry conditions, as freshly cut grass can be more prone to stress.

    Step 2: Measure the correct amount
    Use our Lawn Size Calculator to work out your lawn area. Then weigh out 25g per m²  (kitchen scales are useful for this). It might not look like much, but it's the perfect amount for our high-performance fertiliser. Please don’t be tempted to add more — applying too much can over-feed your lawn, leading to potential damage or scorching.

    Step 3: Spread evenly
    Apply the fertiliser evenly across your lawn using a handheld or push spreader. Walk at a steady pace in straight lines to ensure consistent coverage. Need a spreader? Shop our handheld spreaders.

    Step 4: Watering
    Water the lawn if no rain occurs within 2 days to activate the fertiliser and avoid the risk of scorching.

    Step 5: Wait before mowing again
    Hold off mowing for at least 3 days after application and watering to allow the fertiliser time to fully absorb into the soil. This gives the nutrients the best chance to take effect.

    Step 6: Children & pets
    The lawn is safe for children & pets to walk on immediately after application. However, grazing pets should be kept off the lawn for 4 weeks. See our Child & Pet Safety Guide for full advice.

    For more detail, see our How to Apply Fertiliser Guide, or check your inbox after purchase for a step-by-step email with full instructions and video support.

    Ingredients and How They Help My Lawn

    Every lawn feed we create is designed with purpose — to give your grass exactly what it needs, when it needs it. Each blend in our range uses a carefully balanced mix of nutrients to boost colour, strengthen roots, build resilience and improve overall lawn health.

    Our seasonal fertilisers are also formulated to work in harmony across the year — each one building on the last. When used together, they deliver the perfect balance of nutrition to keep your lawn looking its best in every season.

    What's inside this fertiliser, and how it helps:

    Nitrogen (N) – 17%: Promotes recovery and encourages strong leaf growth before winter. 60% slow-release nitrogen provides a gradual feed to build strength before winter, without stimulating disease-prone growth.

    Phosphorus (P) – 5%: Supports root development to anchor and prepare your lawn for colder months.

    Potassium (K) – 20%: Builds disease resistance and boosts tolerance to frost and stress.

    Iron (Fe) – 2%: Deepens lawn colour and helps manage moss-prone areas.

    Magnesium (MgO) – 1%: Improves chlorophyll production for a richer green appearance without staining paths or patios.

    • 3. Water your lawn
